Everyone has a weakness, even the great demigod hero of the North. While on a quest to heal his son's illness, a terrible foe captures what the skyborn holds dear in exchange for the pure golden water that can cure even death. Yet things take an unexpected turn when a horrible beast and a strange Nenir (mage or warlock?) interfere in his affairs. Hegnus has to face an overwhelming enemy in order to save his son. For the first time in a thousand years, the challenge seems to be beyond his supernatural strengths.
